Sustainable high energy sodium batteries with enhanced safety & cycle life

该项目旨在提供一种高比能量、常温金属钠电池，比现有技术更可持续、更安全、性能更好。将使用创新的化学方法取代目前基于易燃和有毒有机溶剂的系统，同时将打造新的工具和能力，以保持澳大利亚在这一领域的领先地位。这些进展将提供一个技术和材料平台，以产生和支持澳大利亚新兴的储能行业。它将加强与领先研究团队的国际合作，并为学术界和工业界的下一代能源储存研究领导者提供机会和培训。

This project aims to deliver a high specific energy, ambient temperature sodium metal battery that is more sustainable, safer and better performing than existing technologies. Innovative chemistry will be used to replace the current flammable and toxic organic solvent-based systems, while novel tools and capabilities will be forged to retain Australian leadership in this sector. These advances will provide a technology and materials platform to generate and support emerging energy storage industries in Australia. It will strengthen international collaborations with leading research teams and provide opportunities and training for the next generation of energy storage research leaders in both academia and industry.
